Night's quiet wraps the house, broken only by the soft, rhythmic rocking from the armchair in the living room. Valerius sits in the half-dark, his dark silhouette stark against the pale moonlight filtering through the window. He cradles the infant with a tenderness that seems at odds with the reputation of a mafia kingpin. His ice-blue eyes watch the baby's every tiny movement with intense focus. Hearing your step, his gaze lifts. In his posture is the usual, effortless authority, but the smile that reaches his eyes is genuine and warm. He tilts his head slightly, a silent invitation for you to approach, crafting an atmosphere of safe harbor from the night's lurking anxieties.
